SPECIAL MESSAGE. 



STATE OF RHODE ISLAND, &c, 

Executive Department, Providence, January, 1866 



.} 



Gentlemen of the Senate and House of Representatives : 

In accordance with a resolution passed at the last January 
session of the General Assembly, I have caused the accounts 
of the State of Rhode Island against the United States to 
be thoroughly and carefully examined by a competent and 
practical accountant, whose report is now in my possession. 

The main portion of the expenditure of our State during 
the war, properly chargeable to the Government, having 
been incurred by the Quartermaster General's Deparment, 
the examination and report referred to relates to such 
accounts of that Department as have never been published 
in detail. Such portions, however, of the accounts of Quar- 
termaster General Cooke as were found to be intimately 
connected with those of his predecessor in office, and of 
which no report has been made, were included in this 
examination. 

Upon investigating this report, I found the errors, mis- 
statements and omissions in the accounts and reports of 
some of the Quartermasters General of the State of such a 



4 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

magnitude as to demand the full and personal investigation 
which I have since given the matter. As the result of that 
investigation, I lay before you the following statement of 
the most important facts connected with the accounts and 
transactions of the Quartermaster General's Department of 
this State for the years 1861, 1862 and 1863. 

I have also caused the receipts and disbursements of those 
years to be published in detail, in conformity with the course 
which has been pursued since the latter year. They will 
be found in the appendix. 

The account of the Quartermaster General for the year 
1861, shows an apparent expenditure of six hundred and 
fourteen thousand two hundred and twenty-five ^ dollars, 
($614,225 61;) but as thirty thousand four hundred and 
seventy-eight ^ dollars ($30,478 30) was paid over to the 
General Treasurer of the State, this sum cannot be regard- 
ed as an expenditure. Deducting it from the total amount, 
the actual disbursements are shown to have been five hun- 
dred and eighty-three thousand seven hundred and forty- 
seven ft dollars, (|583,747 31.) 

In the Quartermaster General's report for the year 1861, 
it is stated that the entire amount of six hundred and four- 
teen thousand two hundred and twenty-five ^ dollars ($614,- 
225 61) "is clearly chargeable to the United States." This 
is shown to be an error, as but five hundred and eighty- 
three thousand seven hundred and forty-seven ^ dollars 
($583,747 31) was paid out by the Quartermaster General, 
but liabilities incurred by him having been paid by his suc- 
cessor in office to the amount of seventy-four thousand 
seven hundred twenty-four $„ dollars, (74,724 58,) (see 
Quartermaster General's Report, made to the General 
Assembly at its January session, 1863,) this aggregate out- 



SPECIAL MESSAGE. 5 

lay is shown to be but six hundred and fifty-eight thousand 
four hundred and seventy-one ^ dollars, ($658,471 89,) 
exclusive of the amount paid to the General Treasurer for 
collections made from the United States. 

It appears that when the account was made out against 
the United States by Quartermaster General Stead, who 
was employed for this purpose, it included his own expendi- 
ture and the amount paid by his successor, as specified. Of 
the six hundred fifty-eight thousand four hundred seventy- 
one iw dollars ($658,471 89) which had been expended, 
there was found properly chargeable to the United States 
but five hundred thirty-four thousand five hundred ninety- 
eight Jo dollars, ($534,598 82.) The balance, amounting to 
one hundred twenty-three thousand eight hundred seventy- 
three S dollars, ($123,873 07,) the State will be obliged to 
assume, owing to there being no proper vouchers or bills 
upon which to base a claim against the General Government. 
A detailed copy of the claim as presented to the United 
States may be found in the appendix marked A. 

Upon a presentation of the claim to the United States of 
the Quartermaster General's account of five hundred and 
thirty-four thousand five hundred ninety-eight i o dollars, 
($534,598 82,) with the additional sum of twenty-four 
thousand five hundred ninety-two ^ dollars, ($24,592 11,) 
expended by the Adjutant General, with the accompanying 
vouchers, for examination and adjustment, I regret to state 
that the account was returned with exceptions taken to 
vouchers, embracing expenditures to the amount of two hun- 
dred twenty-eight thousand two hundred fifty-eight ^ dollars, 
($228,258 47,) which were suspended or disallowed by the 
Government. A copy of the exceptions, with appended 
reasons, may be found in the appendix, marked B. 



6 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

My exertions will be earnestly continued to overcome 
the objections and obviate the causes which have compelled 
this suspension so far as the just rights of the State will 
warrant, but it cannot be denied that many of the excep- 
tions are properly taken by the Federal Government. 

The system of book-keeping adopted by Quartermaster 
General Frieze, was of such a character that it did not insure 
clearness or reliability in the statement of his receipts and 
disbursements. This defect is observed in the accounts of 
moneys received, both from the General Treasurer and the 
United States, made up from his books, and is substantiated 
by a comparison of the latter accounts with his report. 

The sum of four thousand dollars ($4,000 00) paid and 
charged by the General Treasurer to the Quartermaster 

General, does not appear to have been credited. The pub- 

• 

lished report of the Quartermaster General, made to the 
General Assembly at the January session, 1863, embracing 
receipts and expenditures, specifies the amount of sixty- 
four thousand one hundred and forty-three ™o dollars ($64,- 
143 59) as a sum "already collected" from the United 
States, but it is shown that the General Government has 
charged the State with the sum of one hundred ninety-four 
thousand one hundred and seventy-one ^ dollars ($194,- 
171 20) as having been paid on the Quartermaster General's 
accounts for this year. 

By information obtained from committees of the General 
Assembly in connection with this matter, it is made to 
appear that this discrepancy is partially accounted for by 
assuming that a large portion of the money received from 
the United States was for the purchase of horses for the 
Government ; classing these purchases as " outside transac- 
tions," although the whole amount of money paid by the 
United States was charged to the State of Rhode Island. 



SPECIAL MESSAGE. 7 

Should the assumption be admitted that these were "out- 
side transactions," there would still remain a deficiency in 
accounting for the money received from the United States. 

The claim made that these were transactions upon the 
private account of officials of the State, corresponds with 
the system pursued in keeping the accounts, inasmuch as 
no entries were made upon the books of the Quartermaster 
General concerning them. From the fact, however, that a 
large amount of money was borrowed by that officer upon 
his official, rather than his private signature, and the inter- 
est upon the same was charged to and paid by the State, it 
would have been difficult to relieve the State from the 
responsibility of meeting this indebtedness in full, had there 
been any delay or unwillingness on the part of the United 
States to meet the claim promptly. 

No reason appears to have existed why the Quartermas- 
ter General should have assumed to borrow money of the 
Globe Bank, at a time when the State Treasury was amply 
provided with funds to meet all the requirements rendered 
necessary for the full equipment of our troops. Why the 
State should suffer a loss of six per cent, interest upon funds 
used for private transactions, when it had a sufficiency to 
meet all just claims, is a question which the parties in 
interest can best answer. 

General Frieze explains this matter to the Finance Com- 
mittee of the House, (see page 6, of the Report of that 
Committee in Schedule of Proceedings General Assembly, 
January session, 1865 :) "That the Attorney General advised 
that it was doubtful if the Governor was authorized to make 
the purchase on the State's account, and that an entry 
should not be made upon the books which would authorize 
a claim against the State upon a doubtful authority." If 



8 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

this statement of the Quartermaster General is of force, it 
should then be shown by his books and general transac- 
tions that the same care was used in all other matters per- 
taining to his office. Such does not appear by examination, 
for the same officer expended, in the erection of buildings 
at Portsmouth Grove, over sixty-four thousand dollars 
($64,000 00) from the funds of the State without its author- 
ity ; and besides, his predecessor in office did purchase 
horses for the United States with the funds of the State, 
and his account was approved and passed by the General 
Assembly. 

How many other accounts of the State have been treated 
as private matters cannot as yet be definitely determined. 
That this was not a single exception to the general mode of 
conducting business in that office, is shown from an account 
to which my official attention was called by the Assistant 
Quartermaster General of the United States, asking for the 
correction of a bill of forage furnished the First N. E. Cav- 
alry Regiment, from January 1st to March 15th, 1862, which 
bill had been paid by the United States, and amounted to 
twelve thousand seven hundred and ninety-nine foo dollars, 
($12,799 85.) The request was not only to revise and cor- 
rect the bill, but that an explanation should be given the 
United States Government why the oats charged in the bill 
were purchased at twenty-four pounds to the bushel when 
the standard was thirty-two pounds. 

The matter was referred to the present Quartermaster 
General for explanation in a communication under date of 
August 15th, 1865. A copy of the letter and his answer 
will be found in the appendix, marked letters Nos. 1 and 2. 
The answer of the present Quartermaster General is to the 
effect that the bill of forage referred to had been made up 



SPECIAL MESSAGE. 9 

independently of the forage account upon the books, and 
that the original vouchers for these purchases were not 
found on file in the Department. The official certificate of 
Quartermaster General Remington, stating that oats were 
purchased for the First N. E. Cavalry Regiment, at thirty- 
two pounds to the bushel, rendered it necessary, in the 
absence of vouchers to sustain the charges, to refund to the 
United States the sum of sixteen hundred and ninety-nine 
! 5 o 6 dollars, ($1,699 56.) in payment for 3,4682 bushels of oats 
at forty-nine cents per bushel, this being the difference in 
quantity between twenty-four and thirty-two pounds to the 
bushel, as charged in the bill. 

Whatever view may be taken of this whole matter of 
conducting important financial interests of the State, all 
must admit that it will be difficult for the State to disavow 
the transactions of its Quartermaster General, no matter 
what might be their character, whether applying to the pur- 
chase of horses, oats or other supplies. Upon his official 
certificate, approved by the Executive of the State, these 
bills were paid by the United States Government, the 
amount so paid charged to the State of Rhode Island, and 
could only have been paid to the State's Agent under a legal 
power of attorney from the State. 

The manner in which this is regarded by the proper 
officials of the General Government, appears by a letter 
bearing the date of Sept. 7th, 1865, wherein my attention 
was called to the omission of proper credits to the United 
States in our official reports. For a copy of this communi- 
cation, with copy of letter in reply, see letters in Appendix 
numbered 3 and 4. 

My attention has also been directed to the question of 
the "supplies on hand," which were transferred by Quarter- 



10 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

master General Stead to his successor in office, General 
Frieze, of which no account appears to have been made 
upon the books. Whether or not this property was distribu- 
ted among the regiments and batteries, and charged to the 
United States in the accounts upon which the State has 
made collections, does not appear. The fact, however, that 
the value of property on hand when Quartermaster General 
Stead vacated the office, was over thirty-eight thousand dol- 
lars, ($38,000 00,) and that his successor, General Frieze, 
returned from five to six thousand dollars worth only to 
his successor, involves the whole subject in doubt ; which 
is not relieved by an examination of the books so imper- 
fectly and defectively kept, or by the very obscure manner 
in which the account was treated when made up officially 
for the examination of the General Assembly. 

In the examination of the accounts of the Quartermaster 
General for the years 1862 and 1863, I find them to have 
been of such a nature as to require me to present them in 
connection, as the operations for both years are shown to 
have been such as rendered this connection essential for the 
final success of the private transactions to which reference 
has been made. 

The convenience of those interested in this combination 
of accounts and officers, should not, however, have required 
the concealment of the essential facts in this case from the 
Executive of the State for a period of nearly one year. 

In a written communication, addressed to the Committee 
on Finance at the January session, 1864, which can be found 
on the 284th page of Acts and Resolves of the Session, 
Quartermaster General Frieze submitted a statement of the 
purchase of horses, showing the cost to have been but one 
hundred and seventy-nine thousand four hundred and twen- 



SPECIAL MESSAGE. 11 

ty-two ^o dollars, ($179,422 90,) yet from the fact that one 
hundred and thirty thousand and sixty-two dollars and six- 
ty-one cents ($130,062 61) of the funds collected from the 
United States by Quartermaster General Frieze, were appro- 
priated for the payment of horses, and his successor, Quar- 
termaster General Cooke, applied ninety-two thousand one 
hundred and thirty-seven $> dollars ($92,137 90) of his col- 
lections from the United States, in addition, for the same 
purpose ; the entire payment is shown to have been two 
hundred and twenty-two thousand two hundred dollars 
and thirty-seven cents, ($222,200 37.) This discrepancy 
demands explanation. 

The purchase of these horses, it is fully shown, was made 
prior to March, 1863, and the loans of money from the 
Globe Bank were effected prior to the same period. The 
collections of the United States were made in the months 
of February and March, 1863, and paid over immediately 
to Quartermaster General Cooke, by the State's Agent j yet 
no statement of the receipt of twenty-two thousand six 
hundred and ninety-two $> dollars ($22,692 90) was made 
upon his day-book until nearly one year had elapsed, or in 
March, 1864; after the matter had been brought to the 
attention of the General Assembly. 

A letter was addressed by Quartermaster General Cooke 
to the Finance Committee, on the 12th of March, 1864, — 
which Committee were then investigating the matter, — sub- 
mitting a form for the entry of this transaction upon his 
books, setting forth how he proposed to make this private 
account appear as an official transaction by a State officer; 
which was to open an account upon the books of the Quar- 
termaster General of this State, between the United States 
on the one hand, and Globe Bank upon the other, thus 



12 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

making the Globe Bank the creditor of the United States, 
and seeking to transfer the responsibility which rested upon 
the State to the Globe Bank, and making the United States 
its responsible debtor for accounts which were credited on 
the books of the United States to the State of Rhode Island. 
The entry was thus made upon the books of the Quarter- 
master General of the State, under date of the 25th of 
March, 1864. 

The Finance Committee of the House of last year, state, 
in their report, that Quartermaster General Cooke " made 
a record of the entire transaction upon the books of the 
Department as soon as the facts were brought to his knowl- 
edge." In reply to the complaint, that Quartermaster Gen- 
eral Cooke did not charge the horses to the United States, 
the Committee further state, that Quartermaster General 
Cooke made answer that he was not Quartermaster General 
when the horses were delivered. 

The following facts are submitted in relation to this 
remarkable report : 

First. General Cooke was appointed and entered upon 
the duties of his office January 1st, 1863. 

Second. Of the seven hundred and one horses furnished 
by the State to the Second Cavalry Regiment, Geo. Lewis 
Cooke, as Quartermaster General, delivered, January 30th, 
1863, one hundred and one horses to Troop G, as is shown by 
the receipt of the reginiental quartermaster. 

Third. On the 30th of January, 1863, Quartermaster 
General Geo. Lewis Cooke delivered one hundred horses to 
Troop F, Second Cavalry Regiment, as is shown by the 
receipt of Major Corliss, of the First Battalion, and the 
regimental quartermaster. 



SPECIAL MESSAGE. 13 

Fourth. On the 5th of February, 1863, Lyman B. Frieze, 
acting as Quartermaster General, delivered four hundred 
horses, as appears by the receipt of Major Corliss, of the 
First Battalion, and the regimental quartermaster. 

On the same day, February 5th, 1863, Quartermaster 
General Cooke delivered one hundred horses, taking the 
receipt of the above-named officers for their delivery. 

For copies of the receipts of the delivery of the horses, 
see receipts numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4, in the Appendix. 

These horses were professedly purchased with funds bor- 
rowed from the Globe Bank, for which the State paid the 
interest. The time at which these horses were delivered to 
the State does not appear by any bills, vouchers or accounts, 
and yet a heavy item for forage was rendered to the State, 
and was paid from its funds. 

The delivery of the horses to the United States at the 
periods named is shown, and the fact appears that checks 
were drawn upon the Globe Bank by private parties in 
January and February, 1863, under Quartermaster General 
Cooke's administration. It may not be inappropriate to 
inquire, why the Globe Bank should be selected as the agent 
of this accommodation, or why the Globe Bank should be 
made to occupy the position of the individuals who appear- 
ed to be acting in the double capacity of State officials and 
private individuals in the same transaction ? 

Upon the reasons which caused the Committee referred 
to, to make a report of such an extraordinary character, 
and so inconsistent with the facts thus shown, it may not be 
within the range of my duties to comment. It is more 
properly a subject for the investigation of the General 
Assembly. Certain it is, that the official records already 
referred to, show that the entry in reference to the Globe 



14 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

Bank and the United States was made upon the books of 
the Department among the very last official acts of Quar- 
termaster General Cooke ; that General Frieze and General 
Cooke were both acting in the capacity of Quartermasters 
General in February, 1863 ; and that the latter officer did 
deliver three hundred and one horses at three different and 
specified times. 

The necessity which required the action of both Generals 
Cooke and Frieze at the same time, and the division of the 
horses for delivery between them, as appears by the receipts 
of the proper officers, cannot be comprehended, except upon 
the basis claimed, that there was a mingling of both official 
and private interests in these transactions. 

The sum of sixty-nine thousand four hundred and forty- 
five dollars, ($69,445 00,) collected from the United States 
on the 6th of February, 1863, was paid to the Globe Bank 
March 25th, 1863, by Quartermaster General Cooke. It 
had accrued interest, (being in the form of "certificates of 
indebtedness,") amounting to three hundred and seven J' 
dollars, ($307 89.) 

The balance of interest against the State upon the checks 
drawn by private individuals, amounting to ten hundred 
and twenty-two ^ dollars, ($1,022 54,) was paid from the 
State funds by the Quartermaster General, and charged to 
the Second Cavalry Regiment. The voucher on file for the 
interest paid by the State, bears the approval of my prede- 
cessor in office, and reads, '•'•for funds loaned the State by the 
Globe Bank for the purchase of horses for the Second Cav- 
alry Regiment," and is in the handwriting of the Quarter- 
master General for the year 1863. Should any doubt, there- 
fore, arise as to the responsibility of the State for the pay- 
ment of these funds, thus borrowed, that doubt must be 



SPECIAL MESSAGE. 15 

removed by the peculiar manner in which the voucher was 
worded, to wit : " for funds loaned the State" 

The bills on file in the Department for the additional 
interest of two hundred and forty-six fjfo dollars, ($246 56,) 
which was paid to the Globe Bank, March 9th, 1864, 
by Quartermaster General Cooke, shows that this latter 
amount was paid during my administration, and without 
my approval. 

Careful investigation has established the correctness of 
all of the above facts, and I cannot divest myself of the 
impression, that had the Committee of Finance on the part 
of the House for last year, made further investigations, or 
had they have been more rigidly impartial in their exami- 
nations, and sought to know the full nature of the transac- 
tions of the officials whose accounts they were* called upon 
impartially to audit, they would not have been misled into 
signing a report so much at variance with facts of record. 

I have thus endeavored to present to you such a plain 
and carefully prepared statement of the accounts and tran- 
sactions connected with the Quartermaster General's Depart- 
ment from the commencement of the rebellion, as the reso- 
lution of the General Assembly seemed to call for. The 
gross amount of expenditures for the year 1861 is shown; 
also, that portion of the account to which exceptions have 
been taken by the proper accounting officers of the General 
Government. I have deemed it in every way preferable 
and more honorable for the State, as a creditor of the Unit- 
ed States, to endeavor to meet their just requirements, than 
to knowingly present or press a claim of questionable pro- 
priety, the tendency of which might be to prejudice the 
State unfavorably in the minds of the proper officers of the 
General Government. 



16 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

Great credit is due the United States, for the prompt 
manner in which the claims of the State have been met 
and adjusted upon presentation. No unreasonable delay 
has occurred between their presentation and their examina- 
tion and payment. With the evidence of official certifi- 
cates before them, the accounting officers of the Govern- 
ment are unable to comprehend the omission, in our official 
reports, of money paid by the Government to the State ; 
neither do they understand nor recognize the distinction 
which some have sought to establish between the State and 
its own officers in the settlement of its accounts. 

It is a subject of regret that such embarrassments should 
exist when no good or substantial reasons can be given to 
justify such a method of conducting the important financial 
affairs of the State, especially in its relation to the United 
States Government. The honor of Rhode Island and the 
patriotism of its citizens, who were putting forth efforts 
worthy of themselves to preserve the Union in the hour of 
its great peril, ought not to be clouded with a record which 
reflects unfavorably upon the acts of its officials. 

In conclusion, I submit for your consideration these mat- 
ters of public importance, trusting to your wisdom and dis- 
cretion to suggest such action as will cause the State to 
maintain a just and honorable position in all its relations 
with the General Government, and at the same time care- 
fully protect the honor and interests which have been con- 
fided to you by its citizens. I recommend the appointment 
of a special committee of the General Assembly, to whom 
all matters in question, and all the accounts, shall be 
referred, with power to appoint a clerk, for such time as 
may be necessary, to examine and report such action, by 
bill or otherwise, as to them shall be deemed advisable.

the records of these respective officers, and the amounts mentioned in the re- 
ports made by the Quartermaster General of your State for the years 1862 and

1863. For instance, the amount reported to have been received by your State 
from this Department, seems to be but $64,143 59 for the year ending on the 
31st December, 1862, whilst the actual payments exceeded $150,000 ; and for 
the year ending 31st December, 1863, there seems to have been paid to your 
State Agent, $92,137 90, which does not appear in the report made to the 
General Assembly of your State for that year. 

I am, General, very respectfully,

Captain D. Stinson, Asst. Q. M. U. S. Army, 

New York City : 

Captain : — Your communication of the 7th inst., to Quartermaster General 
Remington has just been received, having been referred to me by that officer. 

I would state that, having examined the discrepancies alluded to by you in 
the reports of our Quartermasters General for the years 1862 and 1863, I can 
assure you that our State Agent, Col. S. P. Sanford, continues to receive my 
entire confidence, as he has that of all the State Executives during the war, 
and he has turned over to the proper departments all moneys received from the 
United States, he having exhibited to me their receipts for the same, among 
them being those for the amounts referred to by you in your communication to 
General Remington. An examination of all our accounts against the Govern- 
ment, which is now being made, will undoubtedly account for the discrepancies 
to which you have called our attention. 

In regard to the amount refunded to you, which was overpaid the State by 
the late Col. Tompkins, U. S. A., while regretting the necessity, I am glad of 
an opportunity to thus assure you that Rhode Island desires only what she is 
justly entitled to from the Government, and fully appreciates the fairness of that 
Government, in the promptness with which they have paid all just claims pre- 
sented. 

Again thanking you for your uniform courtesy to our State officers, 
I am very respectfully, 
(Signed,) JAMES Y. SMITH, 

Governor of Rhode Island.

REPORT OF S. P. SANFORD, 

STATE MILITARY AGENT. 



To His Excellency James Y. Smith, 

Governor of Rhode Island, &c. : 

Sir : — In compliance with your orders to prepare a report with an 
abstract of the accounts of the State, placed in my hands for collec- 
tion and the amount of such claims, also the amount collected thereon, 
together with a statement of all bills now remaining unsettled, includ- 
ing all transactions with which I have in any manner been connected 
as Agent of the State for the settlement of its military accounts with 
the United States, I have the honor to submit the following report : 

In the year 1861, being at that time upon the staff of His Excel- 
lency, Governor Sprague, directions were given me to act as Agent 
for the settlement of the military accounts of the State with the 
United States. Receiving from the Governor all necessary instruc- 
tions, with powers of attorney, qualifying and empowering me to act, 
I proceeded to the performance of the duties designated. 

1861. 

For the year 1861, no detailed accounts of the State against the 
United States were prepared for collection, with the exception of a 
portion of the transportation accounts. 

The bills for the transportation of the Second Regiment of Infantry 
and Battery " A," amounting to the sum of $12,165 00, were 
presented and collected of the United States. This amount immedi- 
ately upon its collection was paid to Governor Sprague, and appears 



2 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

in the report of the General Treasurer under date of August 12th. 
Bills were also made up for the transportation of the 3d and 4th 
Regiments, and Batteries " B," " C " and " D," which amounted 
to $15,978 30, and the sum collected and paid to the Quartermaster 
General of the State in the month of November, the United States 
receiving credit therefor in both cases. During the month of Sep- 
tember instructions were received from His Excellency, Governor 
Sprague, to dispose of the steamer " E. D. Fogg," then owned by 
the State of Rhode Island, which instructions were complied with, 
and a sale was effected to George D. Morgan, Esq., then acting as 
Agent for the United States for the purchase of such property, and 
the sum of $14,500 received as the purchase money from the Govern- 
ment, was paid over to the Quartermaster General. 

Business requiring my presence in Washington during the month 
of October, Governor Sprague informed me while there that the 
United States were willing to pay the State of Rhode Island forty 
per cent, upon the amount expended up to that period, for military 
purposes in behalf of the United States. Orders were received from 
the Governor to return immediately to Providence, and obtain from 
the Quartermaster General the total expenditure for military purposes 
up to that date. Returning to Washington with the necessary papers, 
Governor Sprague gave the matter his personal attention, and through 
his exertions the sum of $231,478 51 was collected and receipted for 
by him, and embraces with the amounts already stated, the sum of all 
the collections for the year 1861. 

1862. 

In February, 1862, an account against the United States for Two 
Hundred and Sixty-Two Horses, amounting to $30,130 00, was 
placed in my hands for collection. This amount Avas collected and 
paid over to the Quartermaster General on the 3d of March. 

During the month of April there were bills amounting to $68,- 
310 00 prepared against the United States, and upon collection were 
paid over to the Quartermaster General on the 1st of May. Accounts 
were also arranged and delivered me for collection, being expendi- 
tures by the State for Clothing and Quartermaster Stores, amounting 
to $66,681 84, together with an account for Two Hundred and Sixty- 
Five Horses, invoiced at $30,475 00, and also transportation bills 
amounting to $4,927 00. Upon these several bills there was collected 
as follows : 



APPENDIX TO SPECIAL MESSAGE. 3 

Account of Clothing and Quartermaster's Stores $48,440 33 

Account of Horses 30,475 00 

Account of Transportation 4,927 00 

$78,842 33 

This amount of $78,842 33 was paid to the Quartermaster General 
of the State during the months of July and August. At a later period 
there was a further collection of $16,888 87, the bills for which had 
previously been presented to the United States. This amount was 
paid to the Quartermaster General on the 6th of September, and 
with the other sums which have been specified, constituted all the 
collections for this year. 

1863. 

The first account presented and paid by the General Government 
for the year 1863, was for the Salary of Dr. James Harris, and 
amounted to $293 52. This was returned to the Quartermaster 
General on the 29th of January. The next account in order handed 
me for collection by the same officer, was for Six Hundred and Thir- 
teen Horses, the total charge for which was $69,445 00, which sum 
was collected and paid to the Quartermaster General on the 6th of 
February. 

About the same time accounts, principally for Clothing, were pre- 
sented, amounting to $28,955 44. Upon this there was collected the 
sum of $27,267 05, which was paid to the Quartermaster General on 
the 21st of February. 

During the month of March an account for Two Hundred and 
One Horses, the bills for which amounted to $22,692 90, and also 
bills for Hospital Stores amounting to $5,428 55, were presented for 
collection. The entire bill for the horses was paid, and upon the 
latter account the sum of $2,872 20, this being all which was properly 
chargeable to that particular department. These two sums making 
$25,565 10, were paid to the Quartermaster General on the 28th day 
of March. 

An account was also handed me for collection, for Quartermaster's 
Stores, amounting to $17,059 23, upon which there was collected the 
sum of $15,371 06. This amount was paid over to the Quartermaster 
General on the 2d day of April. 

Upon the Clothing account previously presented, amounting to 
$28,955 44, an additional collection of $532 71 was made and paid 
to the same officer on the 1st day of June. Upon the account for 



4 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

Quartermaster's Stores, amounting to $17,059 23, which had been 
previously presented and upon which a payment had been made as 
heretofore stated, a further payment of $536 23 was obtained, which 
was paid to the Quartermaster General on the 12th of June. 

The next account made up for collection was for transportation, 
which amounted to $6,879 09. This was paid in full by the United 
States, and delivered fo the Quartermaster General on the 19th of 
the same month. 

Bills for the construction of the buildings of the Portsmouth Grove 
Hospital, amounting to $68,670 55, which had been prepared, were 
then delivered and duly presented for collection to the United States. 
The entire amount was collected, and paid over to the Quartermaster 
General of the State on the 23d day of September. These several 
amounts constituted the entire collections made during this year. 

1864. 

No accounts were given me for collection during the year 1864, 
other than an account for subsistence furnished Portsmouth Grove 
Hospital, which had been previously presented to the United States 
Government for settlement, amounting to $1,206 29. It was collected 
and paid to the Quartermaster General on the 12th of March, it being 
the only collection made of the Government during this year. 

1865. 

For the year 1865, beginning with the month of April, accounts 
which had been prepared were given me for collection, amounting to 
$99,925 50. The account was collected in full, and the proceeds paid 
to the Quartermaster General of the State on the 22d of May. 

In the month of July, other accounts amounting to $104,097 51, 
were handed me, and this amount within a few cents, was collected 
and paid to the Quartermaster General on the 13th of July last. 
In the month of October, accounts amounting to the sum of $16,- 
381 93, were given me for collection, upon which amount $45,112 83 
was paid, and the same delivered to the Quartermaster General of 
the State on the 8th of December. The difference between the 
amount presented and the amount collected was for interest paid the 
Globe Bank. The bills were rejected by the proper accounting officer 
as claims which would not be allowed ; consequently they have been 
returned to the Quartermaster General of the State. 

The following statement constitutes a summary of the collections 
made of all moneys from the United States for military expenditures

6 PUBLIC DOCUMENT. 

It may be thought necessary in connection with this report, to 
make a statement relating to the accounts remaining for collection, 
which have been presented to the United States, and upon which 
only partial payments have been made. In July, 1862, by order of 
Governor Sprague, in connection with the Hon. J. R. Bullock, who 
then held the appointment of Commissioner of this State, for the 
adjustment of its claims, I proceeded to Washington for the purpose 
of effecting " the release of the State of Rhode Island to the United 
States of so much of the claim of the State against the United States, 
as was equal to the quota of the direct tax apportioned to Rhode 
Island, under the Act of Congress of 5th August, 1861." The 
amount of this tax being $116,963 66, less 15 per cent, for collection 
as authorized by the Act of Congress. Shortly after our arrival in 
Washington a release was executed for so much of the State's claim 
as was equal to the nett amount of the direct tax, viz. : $99,419 11. 
Mr. Bullock, upon his return to the State, having tendered his resig- 
nation to Governor Sprague, the matter was then placed in my hands 
for adjustment. The successful arrangement of the matter was 
delayed by an exception which the Government had taken to the 
account of the State. For the purpose of overcoming this exception, 
the account was withdrawn, and a new one, prepared by General 
Stead, presented, which embraced $584,598 82, expended by the 
Quartermaster General's Department, and $24,592 11, expended by 
the Adjutant General, making the gross amount of the State's claim 
$559,190 93. Upon the presentation of the new account, the matter 
was again deferred for the following reason : The Treasury Depart- 
ment had decided that the amount of this direct tax would not be 
entered or allowed, until the accounts of the State which had been 
presented, were examined and accepted for an amount sufficient to 
cover the 40 per cent, which had been paid by the Government, to 
wit : $231,478 51, in addition to the amount of the direct tax. By 
reference to the report of the General Treasurer, it appears the nett 
amount of the tax has been credited to the United States upon his 
books, but the amount had not up to April, 1865, been entered by 
the United States as against the State of Rhode Island. Upon this 
account there is now suspended and disallowed by the United States 
Government the sum of $228,258 47. This sum will, it is thought, 
be very much reduced by still further obviating the objections taken 
by the Treasury Department. 

With reference to the accounts presented in 1862, for Clothing and 
Quartermaster Stores, amounting to $66,681 84, upon which account 



APPENDIX TO SPECIAL MESSAGE. 7 

payments were made of $43,440 33 and $16,888 87, there is shown 
to be an uncollected balance of $6,352 64, which is explained as 
follows : In October, 1861, the Quartermaster General's Depart- 
ment of the United States, being at that time unable to furnish 
Clothing for all the troops called for by the President, authorized the 
State of Rhode Island to furnish to their recruits, as well as to the 
troops in the field from this State, at the average Government prices, 
such articles of Clothing as were required. To obviate this embar- 
rassment of the United States, the State furnished its troops with 
Clothing, but upon the presentation of the account for payment, the 
Department assumed that where the State furnished articles of Cloth- 
ing for less than the Government rates, no increase upon the State 
price would be allowed, but in all cases where the State rates were in 
excess of the Government prices, they were made to conform to the 
Government rates, thus actually charging Rhode Island soldiers more 
for some articles of Clothing than the Government were willing to 
pay the State for the same. Upon an explanation of this matter to 
the Quartermaster General of the United States, he assured me that 
this difference should be justly arranged at some future period. This 
action on the part of the Government left for collection a balance of 
$6,352 64, being the difference in the prices of clothing above 
alluded to. 

The account for Clothing, of $28,955 44, which was presented in 
1863, upon which the sum of $27,267 05 and $532 71 was collected, 
leaving a balance due of $1,155 68, is similar to the account above 
stated, and susceptible of the same explanation. 

The account for Hospital Stores, of $5,428 55, upon which a pay- 
ment was made of $2,872 20, being all that pertained to that particu- 
lar department as heretofore stated, left a balance due on this claim 
for Commissary Stores, of $2,556 35, which balance is now includ- 
ed with our general claim, for presentation. 

The account for Quartermaster's Stores, amounting to $17,059 23, 
upon which payments were made of $15,371 06 and $536 23, is still 
unadjusted. The balance of this account, $1,151 94, being for cups, 
knives, forks, &c, has been placed with the general account for 
recruiting expenses, for collection. 

The following is a summary of the accounts which have been 
enumerated, with a statement of the additional claims which have 
been prepared for collection of the United States :

Total amount of accounts against the United States. 

In October last, acting under instructions of your Excellency, 
application was made to the Quartermaster General's Department of 
the United States for the vouchers connected with the account of the 
State against William E. Hamlin, late Provost Marshal, for money 
loaned him, when the information was given that the vouchers were 
not sustained by proper approvals. As this account was presented by 
Governor Sprague to the Secretary of War and by him referred to 
the Department of the Quartermaster General, it could not be 
withdrawn except upon the application of Governor Sprague through 
the Secretary of War. This account for collection of the United 
States, amounts to $6,50Q 00, but is not at present in my possession.
